[color=#000000ost_uid0]Great fiver as always, Zeke. My favorite parts:

[quoteost_uid0]B'Rat: You must be the ones who wanted the Trellium-D. Can you pay for it?
Archer: We'll pay, dammit! So help me, we'll pay for this!
Tucker: Pardon my captain, he's an idiot.[/quoteost_uid0]
Great turn on a cliche phrase.

[quoteost_uid0]Mayweather: I'm picking up a Xindi ship on an intercept course. And oh crap, look who's in command.
Reed: Launch all the torpedoes! All phasers, FIRE!
Mayweather: Sir, do we really want to use up all the torpedoes at once?
Reed: I gave you an order, mister! [/quoteost_uid0]
Reed and command definately do not mix. :lol:

[quoteost_uid0]Archer: Get the corpse to Phlox. He likes corpses. [/quoteost_uid0]
Hehehe. Phlox and Archer are always my favorite Fiver characters.

I also liked the ending. It was obvious from the beginning that it would end that way, but you managed to put a funny spin on it with the Walrus Xindi's reaction and the tagline. Very good.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0][iost_uid0]The corridors aren't supposed to have speed bumps and Porthos keeps turning into a wildebeest.[/iost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[quoteost_uid0]B'Rat: Hmm... the mélange looks fine, but I don't take chili powder here.
Tucker: Shoot. Cap'n, have you got change for a salt shaker?[/quoteost_uid0]
Heeheehee.

[quoteost_uid0]Rajiin: I just stopped by to thank you. Wait, I forgot the pause. Let me try again.[/quoteost_uid0]

Very funny stuff all the way through.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Hilarious fiver, Zeke! Great use of Archer's new style, Phlox's new sideline and T'Pol and Trip's new mutual interest. I especially liked:

Reed: They're trying to board us! FIRE TORPEDOES!
Mayweather: We already fired the torpedoes, remember? We also fired the phasers, and the grappler, and the laser pointers, and the cutlery, and everything else you could think of. There's nothing left to fire.
Reed: You're fired.
Mayweather: I stand corrected.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Rajiin: I want to... thank you for helping me, Captain.
Archer: You're welcome.
Rajiin: No, I don't want to thank you, I want to... thank you.
Archer: Oh, okay. You're... welcome.
Rajiin: (sigh) Seducing you wasn't supposed to be the hard part.[/quoteost_uid0]
Great fiver, Zeke.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]In addition to the bits cited above:
[quoteost_uid0]
Archer: No, I don't think you will. Where do you come from, Rajiin?
Rajiin: I was enslaved pretty young, but I remember that it was a planet. With people.
Archer: Um... I'm afraid it may take us some time to narrow that down.
Rajiin: Oh, I'm aware.
-------------
T'Pol: You clearly need some neuropressure. And I need smarter coworkers, but no one cares.
-------------
Tucker: T'Pol? I'm here for my... hey! What the centrifuge is going on here?
Rajiin: Oh, um, nothing, we were just VASE IN THE FACE!
Tucker: OW! Tucker to Security! You've gotta stop Rajiin!
Reed: (over the comm) Can I inspect her afterwards?
[/quoteost_uid0]

[quoteost_uid0]
Archer: You won't be thanking anybody in the near future. Take her to the brig.
Security Guy: We have a brig now?
Archer: I know, isn't it great?
---
Phlox: T'Pol's badly hurt, but she'll survive. It appears the sheer power of her cynicism acted as a mental barrier against Rajiin.
Tucker: That's my girl.
Sato: (over the comm) She is not your girl.
Tucker: Is that jealousy I hear?
Sato: No, I have standing orders from her to contradict you when she can't do it herself.
[/quoteost_uid0]
Hee hee hee.
[quoteost_uid0]
Phlox: My first reaction was "Oo, a corpse," but then I scanned it and found something even more Oo-worthy. This Xindi was genetically enhanced.
Archer: That sounds familiar. I'm sure I've heard it somewhere before....
[/quoteost_uid0]
Oh, heck -- most of the rest of it, too.

Wildebeest. Chili. Phlox.

Tell me that THIS isn't a PotC reference! :lol:[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I've only seen PotC once, so I may be way off, but I think what she's referring to is a scene where the canons get loaded with everything but the kitchen sink, like utensils and stuff.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Yeah, that's the one. It was the cutlery reference that got me. Colour me paranoid, I'm seeing PotC references everywhere where there are none... [/colorost_uid0]
